To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, HARRY AIDENLAND, a citizen of the United States, residing at Toledo, in the county of Lucas and State of Ohio, have invented new and useful Improvements in Combined Hoods and Scarfs, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relatesto a combined hood and scarf, and has for its object to provide an article of apparel of the kind that is of simple and economical construction, and adapted to serve both as a becoming covering for the head and a scarffor the neck, and that is susceptible of being arranged in various forms and styles, according to the individual tastes of the wearers. I accomplish these objects by the construction and combination of parts, as hereinafter described and illustrated in the drawings, in which Figure 1 is a blank formed of a single piece of fabric that is adapted to be formed into a combined hood and scarf, constructed side view of the same.

in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is a side view of the hood formed from the blank shown in Fig. 1, by folding the blank on the dotted central line of Fig. 1 and stitching together certain of the coinciding margins and leaving theothers open. Fig. 3 is a three quarter back view of the hood draped in one form on the head, neck and shoulders of a wearer. Fig. 4 is a Fig. 5 is a similar view of the hood draped in a different fashion. Fig. 6 shows the hood draped in still another way, and Fig. 7 shows the hood applied as a cape for the shoulders.

In the drawings in which the same reference numerals indicate the same parts, '1 designates a blank cut from" a piece of fabric to the form shown in Fig. 1, and having theequal edges w-a, b-b, cc, e2: and f-f. The blank 1 doubled on itself on the dottedv line g, with each pair of edges coinciding, is formed into a hood having scarf portions 2, 2 by stitching together respectively the pairs of edges o.a, b-b and 0-0 forming the hood 3, and leaving the edges d-d, ee and f;'' open. Thus constructed, the surplus pointed portions 4a and 5 (as defined .by dotted line a in Fig. 2) respectively lie above the top and back portlon of the crown, when the hood is placed on the head with the face projecting from between the curves of the edges ee. Before placing the hood-on the head the pointed'surplus' portions 4 and 5may be folded and secured onopposite sides of the crown portion, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4, or together and.

other rearward, as'shown in Fig. 6, and when placed on the head the hood will present the respective-effects shown in the Figs. 7

pointed cape.

The, pointed surplus portions 4 and 5 are adapted for ornamentation by embroidery or the like, whereby the hood is made to further express the individual taste of the wearer. I

It is manifest that by changing the angle and increasing the length of the edges a, b and 0 of the blank upward, the lengths of the triangular folds adapted to be formed of the surplus portions will be increased, without departing from the principle of construction of the hood that adapts it to the draping effects shown and described, and I therefore do not limit myself to the exact angles of the top and side edges of the body portion of the blank forming the hood, other than as expressed in the claim.

What'I claim to be new is- A combined hood and scarf formed of a blank of fabric having. two equal side edges and a W shaped top edge, adapted to form a hood portion, and two equal elongated extensions from the body of the hood portion oppositethe inner angles of the top edge and having equal outer edges incurved from and extending thelside edges of the hood portion and two 'equal inner edges oppoextending rearward, as shown in Fig. 5, or one forward and the sitely outcurvedfrom a line bisecting the biseeting line and stitching together the 00- my hand at Toledo, Ohio, this 27th day of incidingdsilile (ainlcll ,top eggleg (1)31? the hczog: por- May, 1916. tion, sin 00 avin 0 a e oin e surplus portions at the glosed end di the hood HARRY AIDENLAND' 5 and scarf extensions from its lower and In presence of open end.
